I don't know. I've never really seen him play. Maybe I'll know more after PS game 3.

Seriously Jim....... This segment could be 90 minutes long and I wouldn't mind. You could be talking about Bartell having an ingrown toenail...... Kelemete can't fit his head into a helmet......

Must....... Have........ MORE!

Eh, I want to know who that corner was. Not so much that Floyd looked good as the corner looked like a bum. It was probably Bethel or some UFA rookie CB. It was a nice catch, but he needs to stay inbounds. Thats how FGs are made, not TDs.


Bad choice of film IMO, Floyds going to be a short yardage/3rd down conversion/red zone chain mover. I cant picture him going out for many go routes. Much rather see crisp route running.

The corner is Michael Fleming.

Good video. Floyd got the DB to bit on that quick out pattern and stayed in front of him for the side line throw, but also looked like he almost turned is rout into a slant inside instead of straight up the sideline. I agree this needed to be a longer video. :) Good to see what the coach is looking at.

Why do all of your posts have a negative tone? :shrug:

Great video Jim - regardless of what CB was on that play when he looked up he had very little time to adjust to make a tough catch and did so easily.

The part about Whiz mentioning the chopping of the feet I found interesting as well - most folks can't comprehend how little time there is between when the ball is snapped and when it comes out, the choppiness of stutter stepping can throw off a play - in this case his ability to adjust to the ball made up the difference. The fact they're talking about this now versus during the season shows some coaching.

Nice video, thanks for sharing. Was a good catch, but I disagree with whomever said he should have stayed in bounds. That's a tough catch, almost fingertip. His stutter may have been poor but his fake to the outside/sideline was pretty stellar. Nobody mentioned it, but flicking the shoulders and straightening out his hips (pretending to run an out to the sidelines) before rotating them upfield for the long ball...that's exceptional. That's not easy at all to do and I'm not surprised the CB fell for it.

Im looking forward to getting a look at Linds in preseason.


Hopefully he does well. Have a Tom Brady, late round gem, savior. Be great. Be a bummer though, If Ryan does do well, then Bartel is on the bubble. I like rich. Seems like a real good dude. Great lockerroom guy. Guys is always always smiling when you see him on the sidelines.
